Setting a Resistance Range (C846i)
You can set a low, medium or high range of resistance on the C846i cycle. Within each group, 25 resistance settings are available, but the chosen group affects the overall resistance range.
An example of where you might use this programming feature is physical therapy conditioning. If a user has an injury that needs low levels of resistance, you might set the resistance range to low to help ensure that the user does not induce further injury by exceeding your recommended levels of resistance. The following table provides short description of each group.
Setting | Description |
|
|
HIGH | provides the full range of resistance available. If an |
| upright cycle user chooses the |
| levels, the cycle provides enough resistance to simulate |
| sprinting or hill climbing for users wishing to stand on |
| the upright cycle. It also provides enough resistance for |
| elite riders that are capable of spinning at high speed |
| with high resistance. |
|
|
MEDIUM | provides approximately two thirds of the resistance that |
| is available within the HIGH group setting. Club owners |
| may want to select the MEDIUM range for recumbent |
| cycles. Since users cannot stand on recumbent cycles, |
| less resistance is needed by the average |
| user. A MEDIUM range may provide more comfort. It |
| also allows users to make easier resistance changes in |
| the preset programs (HILL CLIMB and CROSS |
| COUNTRY). |
|
|
LOW | provides approximately one third of the resistance that is |
| available within the HIGH group setting. The LOW |
| range may be appropriate in special situations where |
| poorly conditioned users are anticipated. The LOW |
| range is not recommended for the club environment. |
